I really don't think BC can score 10. I say more like 45-3

They've scored 10, 17, and 13 against us the last 3 years

with equally bad offenses. We might hold them under double digits, but most likely they will score against our backups and end up with at least 10.

The smart bet would be to take BC and the points...Dabo will play everybody except the cheerleaders in a game like that, and they will call mostly running plays. Dabo does not care anything about running up the score. Clemson, no doubt could win by 32+points, but it is unlikely that they will.

I agree. Dabo has integrity, unlike other Coaches.

What was the score last year? I'm taking the Tigers. You can't tell Ettiene he can't score touchdowns.

That is true...but the BC first team can probably limit the output of our 3rd string freshmen, especially when they know we are going to run. It is your money, but don't get mad if Clemson only wins by 20. I once lost a considerable sum by them not covering the spread by 2 measly points, when they took 3 knees being 1st and goal from the 2 yard line. Remember, their objective is to win the game, not cover the spread.

Dittos! I had the same thing happen to me. In my case it was TB, but to the team, a win is a win, and it's not about covering the spread. In this game, I wouldn't bet. We certainly can stomp them by more than the spread, but it may not happen, depending on how long Dabo waits to put the reserves in the game.

All players will play including RBs and QBs and WRs, they will be running our offense. They will score unless BC can stop them.

Wow, that's a LOT of points to cover...

...essentially a 5 touchdown difference. Sounds like the books are pushing people to BC for some reason, at least early on here.

I doubt Dabo would leave the first string in long enough to cover THAT spread.

Tigers beat a good Lville team by 26. We should cover this spread, if that's even important. More important is playing sound O and D. The points will come.

This is the attitude of our staff, too. IMO

I agree. Spread or no spread, Clemson is so far superior to BC that this one will not be close. The Eaglets play hard but just don't have the talent to compete. Last year, Clemson bombed them at Chestnut (Roasting on an Open Fire) Hill. This year, Clemson bombs them in Death Valley. Something like 48-7 sounds about right to me.
